Assignee: Konrad Windszus
> Resource Merger: Provide a way to completely replace the underlying resources
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-5468
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5468
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: Resource Merger 1.2.10
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Assignee: Konrad Windszus
> Fix For: Resource Merger 1.2.12
>
> Attachments: SLING-5468-v1.patch
>
>
> Currently whenever the mount point of the {{MergingResourcePicker}}
> (/mnt/overlay) or {{OverridingResourcePicker}} (/mnt/override) is used, the
> merging always takes place. It is only possible to hide/modify individual
> resource/properties of the underlying resources but not to completely disable
> the inheritance (and by that replace the whole overriden/overlaid resource).
> A concrete usecase for that is in a CMS (e.g. AEM) where the dialog
> definitions are always loaded via /mnt/override/<resource type>. In that case
> it is not easily possible to completely replace the dialog of the resource
> super type (as only individual child resources or properties can be hidden
> but there is no special property to ignore the inherited resource
> alltogether).
> I propose the following:
> Add a new property {{sling:disregardInheritedResource=true}} in which case
> all the inherited resources would not be taken into account for merging.
